Works well on small shrubs

Aphids have appeared on the underside of my Rose of Sharon shrubs, as well as other types of plants with new foliage budding out. I've tried insecticide sprays and they work, but many of the less expensive sprays wash away with rain or watering, and it's difficult to get the sprays on the underside of the leaves where the aphids are. This product works. You can sprinkle it at the base of plants, but I didn't want to see it on the surface of the dirt so I took a small hand shovel and buried about a teaspoon of the insecticide granules just under the surface so they would be out of sight. After a few days, it looked like it was beginning to work, it needs time to dissolve and for roots to soak it up through the plant into the leaves. A few aphids were still there but most had died and were little brown dots that eventually fell off. By maybe two or three weeks, all aphids were gone. Now it is two months later, time to apply another round of the granules, and the aphids are still gone this whole time. Leaves and flower buds are no longer damaged by aphids, so the plant looks healthy and beautiful. This is one product is one I will pay more for, simply because it works on aphids, which are my main concern. I've also noticed many other bugs gone. Bugs that remained seemed to be the occasional stink bug seen walking on the leaves, as well as insects that vaguely resemble diamond-shaped grasshoppers, the common name is apparently "common tree cricket". I didn't look to see whether this product targeted these insect types. But either way, the leaves and flower buds remained uneaten, undamaged, and healthy-looking. I also purchased another product for mites and other pests, a spray also from BioAdvanced, that for a while resists being washed away by rain or watering, it is called, "BioAdvanced 3-in-1 Insect Disease and Mite Control, Ready-to-Spray, 32 oz". The combination of this spray and the granules got rid of most of the pests I wanted to get rid of, especially to start out when the insecticide granules were first applied at the base of the plant and needed some time to start working.

Very easy to apply. Just sprinkle the granules around the plant and water in.

Cant buy alot of systemic products in NJ. Fortunate to have.
